Answer:

170 N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 20 Kg

Angle (θ) = 30°

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Weight (W) =?

The perpendicular component of the weight can be obtained by using the following formula:

W = mg × Cosθ

W = 20 × 9.8 × Cos 30

W = 196 × 0.866

W = 169.7 ≈ 170 N

Therefore, perpendicular component of the weight is 170 N

The rate constants for the reactions of atomic chlorine and of hydroxyl radical with ozone are given by 3 × 10-11 e-250/T and 2

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Calculate the ratio of the rates of ozone destruction by these catalysts at 20 km, given that at this altitude the average concentration of OH is about 100 times that of Cl and that the temperature is about -50 °C

Knowing

Rate constants for the reactions of atomic chlorine and of hydroxyl radical with ozone are given by 3x $10^{-11} e^{-255/T}$ and 2x $10^{-12} e^{-940/T}$

T = -50 °C = 223 K

The reaction rate will be given by [Cl] [O3] 3x $10^{-11} e^{-255/223} = 9.78^{-12} [Cl] [O3]$

Than, the reaction rate of OH with O3 is

Rate = [OH] [O3] 2x $10^{-12} e^{-940/223} = 2.95^{-14} [OH] [O3]$

Considering these 2 rates we can realize the ratio of the reaction with Cl to the reaction with OH is 330 * [Cl] / [OH]

Than, the concentration of OH is approximately 100 times of Cl, and the result will be that the reaction with Cl is 3.3 times faster than the reaction with OH

Calculate the rate constant for ozone destruction by chlorine under conditions in the Antarctic ozone hole, when the temperature is about -80 °C and the concentration of atomic chlorine increases by a factor of one hundred to about 4 × 105 molecules cm-3

Knowing

Rate constants for the reactions of atomic chlorine and of hydroxyl radical with ozone are given by 3x $10^{-11} e^{-255/T}$ and 2x $10^{-12} e^{-940/T}$

T = -80 °C = 193 K

The reaction rate will be given by [Cl] [O3] 3x $10^{-11} e^{-255/193} = 8.21^{-12} [Cl] [O3]$

Than, the reaction rate of OH with O3 is

Rate = [OH] [O3] 2x $10^{-12} e^{-940/193} = 1.53^{-14} [OH] [O3]$

Considering these 2 rates we can realize the ratio of the reaction with Cl to the reaction with OH is 535 * [Cl] / [OH]

Than, considering the concentration of Cl increases by a factor of 100 to about 4 × $10^{5}$ molecules $cm^{-3}$ , the result will be that the reaction with OH will be 535 + (100 to about 4 × $10^{5}$ molecules $cm^{-3}$ ) times faster than the reaction with Cl

A tuning fork vibrating at 508 Hz falls from rest and accelerates at 9.80 m/s^2. How far below the point of release is the tunin

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

tuning fork vibration = 508 Hz

accelerates = 9.80 m/s²

speed of sound = 343 m/s

observed frequency = 490 Hz

$f_s = f(\dfrac{v}{v-(-v_s)})$

$f_s = f(\dfrac{v}{v+v_s})$

$v_s = v[\dfrac{f_s}{f_o}-1]$

$= 343[\dfrac{508}{490}-1]$

$v_s=12.6 m/s$

distance the tunning fork has fallen

$y_1=\dfrac{v^2}{2a_y}$

$=\dfrac{12.6^2}{2\times 9.8}$

=8.1 m

now, time required for the observed will be

$t = \dfrac{8.1}{343} = 0.023 s$

now, for the distance calculation

$y_2 = u\ t + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

$= 12.6\times 0.023 +\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 0.023^2$

=0.293 m

total distance

= 8.1 + 0.293 = 8.392 m

tom does not reallt want to give away blue marbles and would like to change the probability that he chooses a blue marble to one

Llana [10]

We don't know how many of ANY color are in the bag right now, so there's no way to calculate an answer.

What Tom has to do is make sure that the number of marbles that are NOT blue is NINE TIMES the number of blue ones in the bag.

A laser pulse of duration 25 ms has a total energy of 1.4 J. The wavelength of this radiation is

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

n = 4 x 10¹⁸ photons

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the energy of one photon in the radiation:

$E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\\$

where,

E = Energy of one photon = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.625 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of radiation = 567 nm = 5.67 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

$E = \frac{(6.625\ x\ 10^{-34}\ J.s)(3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s)}{5.67\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m}$

E = 3.505 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now, the number of photons to make up the total energy can be calculated as follows:

$Total\ Energy = nE\\1.4\ J = n(3.505\ x\ 10^{-19}\ J)\\n = \frac{1.4\ J}{3.505\ x\ 10^{-19}\ J}\\$

<u>n = 4 x 10¹⁸ photons</u>
